"Sam, we are running low on thermal, are we near any sources?" An orange unicorn asked, his artificial wings folding. "Large source, wait, it's moving." Sam said, looking at a device mounted on her hoof. "Wait, that would mean-" Skopio started before a black shape burst out of the ice. "Mutant!" the entire herd yelled, raising machine guns. A large arm raised from the ice. It slammed into a pony, making it dissapear under the ice. "Dephi!" Skopio yelled, and pointed his hoof at the large shape. A cable shot out of a hoof mounted item. He lifted into the air, and zoomed towards the shape. "You killed dephi you asshole! Now you die!" he yelled as he planted the barrel of his machine gun at the base of its skull. Light cut through the snow cloud followed by a thud and the sound of cracking ice. A cable shot at the ice hole. "Help me up." a voice said. the remaining six poines pulled him up. "Fuck, That was a Category M. A Category G will blow us to hell." Skopio said, Reaching for a Thermal energy tank. "What are you doing?" Sam asked, getting up. "Going to get some thermal, The Mutant is dead." The other ponies got up and reached for their own tanks. "Alright, let's go get some thermal." Skopio said before plummeting into the large hole in the ice.

  He landed in the rocky interior ot the ice sheet. "Alright, bring the TS-11 down." Skopio said, looking at the dead Mutant. His eyes wandered until he saw a pony's body lying limp on the ground. Another thud, creating a cloud of dirt. When it cleared, a mechanical Drill-Walker was visible. "Alright, Sam grab Dephi's body, We are giving him a proper burial." Skopio said, pointing to the body. Screeching noises reverberated through the cavern. "Fuck, more mutants on the way." The pegasus in the Vital Suit said, raising the weapons on it. "Get that thermal and lets get out of here before-" he started before being pounced on by an mutant. He aimed his machine gun up, and shot the akrid on top of him. Akrid were swarming the Vital Suit. "Fuck, get them off the TS!" The pegasus in the TS-11 said, pulling out his machine gun and sooting the mutants on board. Soon the entire team was invisible, covered in mutants. "--Initiating Self-Destruct, Eject--" was heard over the sounds of screeching mutants. An orange glow emitted from a pile of mutants, followed by an explosion, sending Mutants flying over the cavern. thermal energy was everywhere, even on some akrid, which caused cannibalism. After a while the last mutants was eating one of it's own legs. Skopio took out a camera and took a photo. "I have no clue to either be apalled or intrigued." Sam said, wiping some mutant bits of off her cloak. Skopio walked up to the last akrid and shot it. "I'm alright, I was just rocketed through the cavern." said the pony who used the TS-11 he was being sarcastic, he had a broken hind leg, and a broken front leg. Sam got up, trotted over to him and helped him limp the rest of the way. "Set him down Sam." Skopio said, pulling out a medical kit. "And this is why a Harmonizer is essential." he said, pulling out a Brace-like device. "This is gonna hurt a bit." he said, putting the Brace on the pony's wrist. He pressed a button on the device, and the pony's face cringed. He soon stopped. "Now get up." Skopio said, putting away the medical kit, without the brace. "I can't." was the answer. "Try." Skopio said, getting out a small box of food. The TS-11 pony stood up, like no injury had ocurred. He rolloed his upper leg, as fine as any other part in his body. "Damn, this is great!" he said trotting around. "Easy, it is still technically broken, you're just able to fight." Sam said, tossing a small ration of food at him. The other ponies sat down and got their own food out. "Lets eat, then get some sleep." Sam said, trotting over to Skopio.While the other ponies were making noise getting out thier sleeping bags, Skopio whispered to sam; "Wait, you are the only female here, I don't wan't or group to fight for dominance for you, if they knew We were together, The group would fight.". "Wat are ya' talking 'bout?" asked the first pony in his sleeping bag. "Uh, erm tactical advice." Skopio said, using his hoof to cover Sam's mouth.
